I was in a huge rush to leave, so I didnt have time.
Also I paid with points if that matters

Tell them that sorry doesn't cut it for you

just because you paid with points doesn't mean that your not entitled to hot water/compensation for that.

If it doesn't work with the local hotel call Marriott and explain to them the situation.

Someone is there now who got kosher brekkie...

From him:

I also requested kosher breakfast and they have it arranged for all 5 days. So far the first two were boxes of 4/5 pastries from korcars
And fresh oj and coffee.
I requested to see if they can arrange for a kosher fruit/cheese breakfast. They said they'll try.

Park Plaza Tel Aviv
Half of the bottom of our baby's crib fell out, she slid down, and her head go stuck btw the wooden bars and the mattress. This obviously kept e/o up for a while.
The first cs rep in the morning said there was nothing she could do besides apologize, and that the gm wasn't in. Later in the day, my m-i-l said it was unacceptable, and they finally didn't charge her for the room, which was $220 (which would have gained me 17k points). She also made my m-i-l sign a legal waiver that she waived all legal rights!!

I wasn't there w/ them, but I called up Carlson, explained what happened, and we'll see where this goes from here.

Thoughts? The waiver thing was very weird.

After not hearing from them in a while, I called them, and they had sent it to their legal department.
I explained that I'm not looking to turn it into a legal thing, but I want an apology and proper compensation.
